China Logistics is a provider of typical freight forward services, including goods reception, space reservation, transit shipment, consolidate traffic, storage, and multi-modal transport. The company hauls a variety of merchandise such as refrigerated goods, hazardous merchandise, and perishable agricultural products.

In addition to its U.S. offices near Los Angeles, Calif., China Logistics conducts business in China via subsidiary Shandong Jiajia International Freight & Forwarding Co., an international freight forwarder and logistics manager that acts as an agent for international freight and shipping companies. Shandong sells cargo space and coordinates land, maritime, and air international transportation for clients seeking to export goods from China.

In December 2013, exports and China peaked at a record high of $207.7 billion. Though exports in China contracted year-over-year in the months of March and February 2014, March exports of $170.1 billion is an increase from $114.0 billion in February, according to the General Administration of Customs. This export growth is a vital component of China’s accelerated economic expansion, as exports of goods and services constitute 30 percent of China’s GDP.

To take advantage of the considerable global opportunity in international shipping, China Logistics has established a network of domestic and international transportation service provider partnerships. To accommodate a diverse client base, Shandong Jiajia has branches in major seaport cities in China, including Shanghai, Qingdao, Xiamen, and Lianyungang.

Moving forward, China Logistics is seeking opportunity to expand its business in areas complementary to its current international freight forwarding, logistics management, and trucking services. Last year, the company initiated a plan to offer limited domestic trucking services dispatched from its Shanghai headquarters and plans to expand these services initially to clients in close geographic proximity to the ports currently serviced.

China Logistics also intends to sharpen its focus on the freight forwarding services business to parts of South America, and is exploring plans to establish its own warehouse facility for international and domestic storage and logistics.

China Logistics Group is an American freight forwarding and logistics company doing business in China through its subsidiary, Shandong Jiajia International Freight & Forwarding Co., Ltd. (“Shandong Jiajia”). Shangdong Jiajia was established in 1999 as an agent for international freight and shipping companies. It continues in this capacity today, selling cargo space and arranging land, maritime, and air international transportation primarily for the export of goods from out of China.

China Logistics Group has a regional office in China’s largest seaport city, Qingdao, China, and operates offices in Shanghai, Xiamen, and Lianyungang. In the United States, the company operates offices near Los Angeles in Paramount, California. Through Shandong Jiajia, China Logistics Group leverages key relationships with agents in North America, Europe, Australia, Asia, and Africa for facilitation of freight shipments. Shandong Jiajia has cemented itself as a reputable freight forwarding and logistics services provider, having worked with globally known shipping companies such as Nippon Yusen Kaisha, Nedlloyd, and Regional Container Lines. In 2014, China Logistics Group has expressed interest in strengthening its service outreach to South America due to growing trade relations between China and the greater Latin American region.

An article on BusinessSpectator.com showcases the growing trading relationship between these two regions. In the space of ten years (2004-2014), China-Latin America trade volume has shot past $250 billion per year, and China is on track to passing the European Union as Latin America’s second largest export market by 2016. Exports to China from Latin America are largely commodity-based, but Chinese exports of some segments of final goods to key regions in Latin America have been strengthening. For instance, the Chinese Association of Automobile Manufacturers recently announced that South America has emerged as its strongest automobile export market as a result of rapid year-to-year growth. In 2013, China’s auto exports to South America saw a year-on-year increase of 18 percent from 2012. Other factors, such as strong economic growth in major South American countries, have increased South America’s viability as a regional trade market.

Having begun freight forwarding shipping services to South America from China in 2012, China Logistics Group has been establishing agent relationships with South American companies. The company recently announced the formation of agent relationships with two companies, CMA CGM and Evergreen International Corp., which the company anticipates will lead to a freight shipping volume of 5,000 TEU (twenty foot equivalent units).

In the future, China Logistics Group’s management anticipates that South America will emerge as one of the company’s strongest and most profitable shipping routes. China Logistics Group is also focusing on company growth through strategic acquisitions and mergers. It is doing due diligence on one strong, prospective candidate and hopes to have completed at least one acquisition by the end of fiscal 2014.

Fifteen years ago, China Logistics Group subsidiary Shandong Jiajia International Freight & Forwarding Co., Ltd. was formed as an agent for international freight and shipping companies. Shangdong Jiajia sells cargo space as well as arranges land, maritime, and air international transportations primarily for exports out of China.

Today, China Logistics operates U.S. offices near Los Angeles in Paramount, Calif., and has established a regional office in the largest seaport city of Qingdao, China, as well as branch offices in other major seaport cities in China. Demonstrative of its long-standing growth and reputation, over the years the company has leveraged its strategic locations and extensive offerings to establish partnerships in North America, Europe, Australia, Asia, and Africa.

Once the ship departs port, China Logistics maintains tracking on the merchandise using web-based tracking software provided by each particular shipping agency. The company then relays this information via periodic updates to customers on both the shipping and receiving end of the transaction.

The company’s growth strategy is to identify opportunities in strong economic regions located in close proximity to certain ports the company currently operates in order to complement its current international freight forwarding and logistics management services.

China Logistics Group, an international freight forwarder and logistics manager based in Shanghai, is facing significant industry challenges yet handling them with style.

In recent years, the company has had to conduct business in an industry that has suffered considerably from a protracted recession in the European Union, a major slowdown in China’s economy, and an overall weakness in global demand. Rather than bow to the pressures of this difficult time, the company has taken steps to compensate for further weakness in the domestic and international markets it operates in by:

The company implemented these strategic growth initiatives step-by-step. First, it initiated the effort to diversify its client base by expanding into new international markets. The company noted a steady increase in trade between China and South America in the last ten years thanks in large part to strong economic growth in countries like Argentina and Brazil and began offering freight forwarding services from China to destinations in South America in March 2012. In 2013, it further expanded that business believing that the South American route could become one of its largest revenue-generating shipping routes in coming years.

Next, the company broadened the scope of its services by adding new domestic trucking services and improving its service capabilities. In 2013, it began strengthening its domestic trucking capabilities through a leasing arrangement with a major trucking company. It also focused on improving its competitive capabilities for several services, including the receipt of goods, warehousing, customs declaration, inspection declaration, multimodal transport, and combined large-scale logistics.

Finally, the company saw the potential to further accelerate its growth through strategic acquisitions and mergers that would allow it to reach greater economies of scale. It began evaluating strategic acquisition opportunities a while back and, at this time, is in the early stage of performing due diligence on one strong potential candidate. The plan is to pursue these opportunities aggressively and the hope to complete one strategic acquisition by the end of fiscal 2014.

The China Logistics Group is counting on these strategic initiatives—and improving domestic and international economic trends—to drive a sustainable growth track for its logistics operations now and in the future.

In a news release issued today, China Logistics Group reported that it is eying opportunities for expansion through potential acquisitions or mergers in 2014. Even though global demand for services in the logistics and freight forwarding industry in China has been weak for a number of years, the international freight forwarder and logistics management company has strengthened its growth opportunities through its implementation of a few initiatives. These include China Logistics Group diversifying its client base into new markets and expanding its service options to include limited domestic trucking services.

Global demand for services in the China-based logistics and freight forwarding market had remained weak as a result of prolonged recessionary conditions in the European Union and the slowdown in China’s own economy. Despite these challenges, China Logistics Group has persevered and sees greater upside potential for reaching greater economies of scale through strategic acquisitions. The company’s management has begun reviewing strong acquisition prospects and is conducting diligence on at least one candidate.

It is hopeful that it will engage in at least one strategic acquisition in this fiscal year. Danny Chen, Chairman and CEO of China Logistics Group, commented, “We believe the logistics market will gradually recover as the world economy improves, making this the perfect time to look for new opportunities to give us an advantage in this competitive market. We believe that the right strategic acquisition or merger will substantially accelerate growth in our business and set the stage for rapid expansion should markets improve substantially in the coming years.”

China Logistics Group, an international freight forwarder and logistics management company, anticipates strong growth in domestic and international end markets for its logistics operations in 2014.

Despite weakness in global demand as a result of a prolonged slowdown in European as well as a significant weakness in China’s domestic economy China Logistics Group was busy starting several initiatives to diversify its client base and expand the scope of its services. In addition to the establishment of its South American route in 2012, the company began to strengthen its domestic trucking capabilities through a leasing agreement with a major trucking company in 2013. From a service prospective the company focused on improving its competitive capabilities in receipt of goods, warehousing, transporting shipments, consolidation of freight, customs declaration, inspection declaration, multimodal transport, and combined large-scale logistics.

China Logistics Group looks to gradual improvements in the domestic economy that will run concurrent with continued expansion of logistics exporting through its South American routes will drive growth in 2014 and beyond. Management further believes this growth will offset any further weakness in European markets.

Danny Chen, Chairman and CEO of China Logistics Group, commented, “China has been the key driver of the global economy in the past decade. As the domestic economy in China recovers, we believe our efforts to broaden our services and open new international markets place us in a strong position to benefit from improving economic trends in 2014 and beyond.”

Today before the opening bell, China Logistics Group announced that it expects further expansion in shipping volumes to its South American route from Shanghai. An international freight forwarder and logistics management company, China Logistics Group anticipates that the volume growth will occur in this year.

Beginning in March 2012, the company started offering freight forwarding services from China to locations within South America. It subsequently expanded that service coverage in 2013. Trade between South America and China has strengthened in the past decade due to strong economic growth in larger South American countries such as Brazil and Argentina.

Just recently, China Logistics Group cemented agent relationships with two South America-based companies, CMA CGM and Evergreen International Corp. China Logistics Group estimates that freight volume from these two agent relationships will be around 5,000 TEU (twenty foot equivalent units).

Danny Chen, Chairman and CEO of China Logistics Group, commented, “Trade between China and Latin America has been steadily increasing over the past five years. The top five nations in this trade zone as measured by freight volume were Brazil, Mexico, Chile, Venezuela, and Argentina. Management South America represents a perfect business opportunity for the company, and these two new relationships have significant growth potential for the Company in the coming years. We continue to believe the South America route has the potential to become one of the Company’s largest revenue-generating shipping routes within the next several years and we intend to work diligently to expand our business in this geographic region.”
